This is great. When I was out yesterday, I noticed that the clouds had changed from being the high thin clouds of winter to the deep and rolling ones of spring.

Thanks for being the first contributor to One Single Impression, and thanks for a beautiful first contribution.

I love this one. I've been noticing clouds a lot lately, and trying to figure out just how they fit in my daily routine.

I am doing a cloud unit with second graders. May I share your poem for inspiration. They have painted clouds and are now writing a poem for their painting.
Love this and I love looking at clouds.

An excellent one-line haiku mandy; I like how the word "move" is so pivotal.

spacedlaw said...

Good! I love clouds so your one liner would appeal to me. And I like how the clouds are showing a face.

Love the thought here - we've gone from gray, gray and more gray to a shift toward blue - move is a key word!

Really like the way "cumulus moves" moves in my unverbalized speech -- it changes. :-)

Sandy is optimistic! Your poem is beautiful. I actually feel the movement of the gentle giant clouds. http://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gif
